The aim of the present study was to illustrate the way in which Chinese students of Spanish used reporting verbs in their master’s thesis, by building on the pioneering work of Hyland (2002) and Charles (2006).
In this group presentation, we used Sketch Engine to visualize the collocates of immigrant words across three language corpora.
The present study seeks to understand and explain why and how semantic change of the words English migrant and Spanish migrante happens.
